Latino Voter Shift

New Poll Shows Latino Voters Souring on Trump and Shifting Toward Democrats

A new NBC/Telemundo poll has found that Latino voters are increasingly turning towards Democrats, particularly on crucial economic issues. The survey found that by a 24-point margin, 59% to 35%, they would prefer to see the Democrats win control of Congress over the Republicans in November. However, this is not as robust as the preference for a Democratic victory in the 2018 midterms. The poll also found that only 27% of Latino voters approve of President Donald Trump's overall job performance, with an even smaller 20% approving of his handling of the cost of living. While Latinos give Trump a 30% approval rating on immigration, two-thirds believe his administration has gone too far in its approach to immigration enforcement. A 62% majority of Latino respondents rate the Republican Party as a whole negatively, up from 46% in September 2024.
